Antique Art Nouveau Armchair in Solid Oak and Floral Upholstery, Belgium ca 1900
About the Item
This elegant armchair, crafted around 1900–1910, is a true masterpiece of early 20th-century craftsmanship, blending the clean geometry of the Arts and Crafts movement with the organic lines of Art Nouveau, the French and Belgian counterpart to the German Jugendstil. The solid oak frame features strong, architectural lines combined with subtle curved supports, creating a perfect balance between structure and elegance. Particularly striking are the graceful arching supports beneath the seat and arms, adding both stability and a sense of movement.
The floral upholstery, with its rich botanical motifs in muted pinks, greens, and earthy tones, brings a soft, naturalistic touch to the robust oak structure. This antique floral armchair is a perfect example of how natural forms were celebrated in both furniture and decorative arts during this period.
This vintage chair would be a perfect fit in a sophisticated living room, a stylish reading nook, or a romantic bedroom interior. It also complements eclectic, bohemian, or country-style spaces where natural materials and artistic craftsmanship are valued. This handcrafted oak chair pairs beautifully with both antique and contemporary pieces. Its authentic character and artisanal quality enhance interiors that celebrate craftsmanship, natural materials, and timeless design.

Art Nouveau Armchair 'Model Stössler', Design by Adolf Loos, Vienna, circa 1900
By Friedrich Otto Schmidt, Adolf Loos
Located in Vienna, AT
Adolf Loos (1870 - 1933) designed the chair model shown here in 1899 based on an English model as part of his earliest work as an interior designer for the dining room in Eugen Stössler's apartment in Vienna. The omission of the front supports of the armrests and the backwards curved legs lend the early chair a touch of elegance. Instead of the turned legs of the English model, Loos used smooth round wood with brass feet to protect the carpet. So these ankle cuffs fulfill a practical purpose and at the same time have a decorative effect. They thus correspond to Loos' demand for a 'unity of form and function'.
Beautifully shaped furniture made by hand in high quality, solid walnut and veneered, shellac hand-polished, upholstered seat and covered with leather, brass nails and brass shoes.
Execution: Friedrich Otto Schmidt, Vienna, circa 1900
Model number 6865
The model was produced by the company F. O. Schmidt and was also in their offer at the time. This explains why this chair model, specially designed by Loos for one of his interiors, can also be found on the art market.
